Also, during the Summer, ex-MTV Europe V.J. Ray Cokes asked The Cure to play at his wedding, only 3 of the 75 guests had any idea what was going on when Ray got up to sing "Just Like heaven" and when he couldn't remember the words and asked "Where are The Cure when you need them?" They duly walked on stage in their best Wedding suits and performed 8 of his favourite songs! The party was on a beach in St. Tropez. The Cure took a short break from setting up the studio and starting the new Record... needless to say the bash went on until they were all thrown out or threw up (or both!), and then carried on back at the hotel until the sun came up...

Could you tell us a bit more about the wedding you played at and which songs you performed on the day?Robert: Ray Cokes asked me backstage at Shepherds Bush Empire last Christmas if we'd play at his wedding and I said yes! we played 'Let's Go To Bed', 'Lullaby', 'Saturday I'm In Love', 'Love Song', 'Close To Me', 'Boys Don't Cry', '10.15 Saturday Night', and 'Killing An Arab' ... very, very badly ... (and yes, I wore a suit!)
